Chapter 705 The Princess Wants to Meet Her
"Do you want the proprietress of the store to go there in person?" Qin Yao's voice increased by one degree.
Liu Fei swallowed and nodded heavily.
Qin Yao smiled silently and patted the table, "Do this with me!"
The fragile little table shook, then cracked.
But he didn't fall down. He was holding on weakly, as if he could turn into powder at any time with just a breath of air.
Liu Fei took a step back. The power of his third sister-in-law was really scary. If he hadn't been unable to kneel down, he would have really wanted to kneel down and speak.
Qin Yao took a deep breath to calm down her excitement and picked up another note wrapped in red cloth. Inside was a total of 4,500 taels of 'paper' that had been sent to the princess's mansion.
He raised his eyes to look at Liu Fei, who was trembling a little. Knowing that he had frightened the child, he calmed down and gave him what he thought was a gentle smile, "Say it again, don't miss any details."
The candlelight in the room was blown back and forth by the wind. By chance, a shadow flashed across Qin Yao's smile, making her teeth look white. Liu Fei was shocked when he saw it.
He wasn't sure if his third sister-in-law was angry, so he tried to recall the process of going to the princess's mansion in the evening, making sure not to miss any details.
"After the accounts were settled with Fulong Trading Company yesterday, I calculated and wrapped up the money I wanted to give to Sister-in-law San for you and the portion for the Princess Mansion. I kept wrapping it in red brocade and putting it in a basket when I sent it to the Princess Mansion. Inside, put a layer of yellow straw paper."
"I knew I was going to the Princess Mansion today, so I came out of the store at noon. I first informed the back door manager of the Princess Mansion, and after agreeing on a time, I headed to the Princess Mansion with the prepared papyrus."
It was his first experience, and this time he went through the back door.
However, when the appointed steward showed up, he was not allowed in, and he was not allowed to enter as a reward. He was not allowed to enter at all.
Liu Fei saw it at that time and thought, this is not right. He just came to make an appointment at noon. Why did he suddenly change his mind?
He guessed that there must be something fishy here.
After a lot of probing, the steward told him that their prince-in-law had returned from another courtyard, and His Highness avoided seeing the foreign man to avoid suspicion.
At this point, the hint is already very obvious.
But Liu Fei failed to understand it at the time. After all - Her Highness the Princess still wanted to avoid suspicion for her consort? Simply unheard of.
Finally, after spending a long time with the steward, the steward said: "Your Highness doesn't see my husband, can't you just ask your landlady to come?"
Liu Fei suddenly realized that he was just waiting here!
Can't these big shots just say what they have to say?
They have to make people guess, and if they don’t say the key words for a long time, do they think that everyone is a roundworm in their belly, and they can guess it accurately?
If you don’t understand this, you’re going to make a big mistake!
Or is it that those in higher positions like to act this way and appear sophisticated?
Without comparison, there is no harm. Liu Fei suddenly discovered that his third sister-in-law was really kind. She said what she said directly and never let her subordinates guess.
However, Her Highness the Princess was not something that a commoner like him could comment on, so Liu Fei just complained a few words in his heart.
Qin Yao became even more silent after listening to Liu Fei's description in silence.
She suddenly thought about what Mu Ling said to her before leaving on the day she sent Siniang to register at the Women's Garden, "If I don't see you this time, I'll see you next time."
It seemed that the princess had been waiting for her to come to the house on her own since she entered the capital.
No need to think about it, it must have been the woman Mu Ling who came up with the idea, and her desire to harm her will never die!
It's okay to secretly do something for the public. Qin Yao has nothing to say. After all, he is still relying on other people's light.
But if she is allowed to enter the princess's mansion and stand beside the princess to do things for her openly, the risk level will rise sharply.
Liu Fei didn't see Qin Yao's reaction for a long time, so he couldn't help but ask: "Third sister-in-law, are you going?"
He didn't know what the princess wanted to do, but he knew that ordinary people would be ecstatic if they were invited by the princess like this.
That is the powerful eldest princess. If she takes a fancy to her, anything that leaks out from the cracks of her fingers will be extremely rich to ordinary people like them!
But his third sister-in-law's face not only lost the joy, but also became more and more gloomy.
Qin Yao pondered for a moment, exhaled a breath, collected all the money and tickets, and said to Liu Fei:
"I'll take care of this, you don't have to worry about it."
"By the way, I've been in Beijing for so long. Do you have any plans? What I said back then still stands. If you find something you want to do, just say so. My sister-in-law will fully support you."
Qin Yao changed the topic and didn't want to think about the troublesome things in the princess mansion for the time being.
Speaking of this, Liu Fei is no longer sleepy.
He sat down again and said with some embarrassment: "I should want to open a shop and do women's business. I have many ideas, but I haven't decided which one is better. I'm observing."
As he spoke, he subconsciously put his arm on the edge of the small table.
For a moment, Liu Fei thought of something, but he was thinking about opening his own shop, and the thought flashed away.
Then--
With a sound of "Bang!", the table under his arm suddenly tilted, and his whole body sank uncontrollably.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Fei, along with his chair and the small table that shattered and fell, fell to the ground in a panic!
There was a lot of movement, and everyone in the backyard ran over.
Liu Jiren didn't come the fastest, but he was the loudest.
"Madam, what's wrong with you!"
He hurried in and his nervous eyes instantly relaxed when he saw Liu Fei lying on the ground.
"It's not a lady, then it's okay." Liu Jichong waved his hands to the four Dalang brothers and sisters who were following him, "Retreat!"
Liu Fei's eyes were filled with disbelief. After all, he was born to the same father, but he didn't even come to help him?
Soon, only Qin Yao and Liu Fei were left in the flower hall.
Qin Yao reluctantly pulled the stunned Liu Fei up from the ground and asked him to go back to his room to rest.
I picked up the broken boards and moved them to the kitchen, reused them, and even made a fire.
When he came out of the kitchen, he met Liu Ji's curious head.
Qin Yao raised her hand and punched the forehead with a bang, and asked angrily: "Didn't you withdraw?"
"Isn't this because I care about you, madam?" Liu Ji caught up with her while rubbing his forehead, and asked with wide eyes:
"Madam, why did you break the table? Who made you unhappy?"
Without waiting for Qin Yao to answer, she said with a firm tone: "Did that boy Liu Fei make you unhappy? I'll go and bring that boy here!"
With that said, he picked up the pole hanging the lantern by the door and headed to the guest house.
"stop!"
Qin Yao: "Get back here!"
"Okay~" Liu Jima put down the pole and ran back to her.
Looking at his sincere eyes, Qin Yao's inner irritability inexplicably faded away a lot.
Ask him to get himself a basin of water to soak his feet. While soaking his feet, he imagines what will happen if he refuses the invitation from the eldest princess.
Then, he lay down comfortably under Liu Ji's superb massage techniques.
Before falling asleep, he did not forget to tell Liu Ji, "I will go to the eldest princess's mansion tomorrow. If I am not back before the curfew, you can just pack up and run away."
As soon as the quilt was covered, I fell asleep completely.
Liu Ji looked up in horror: What! ! !
